- Up to 3% performance improvement with new option --maxmem to allocate the maximum memory of the card. For Vega cards the "HBCC Memory Segment" has to be disabled in the Radeon Settings to use the option. Disadvantage is a higher risk of hash rate drops when the --maxmem option is used. And if we didn't install the Radeon Setting? I use one of the lastest driver (around 18.3.2). With Radeon Settings the AMD Adrenaline Radeon Settings is meant, the icon with the red balls circling around. The "HBCC Memory Segment" is an option in the "Global Graphics" tab. I am not aware of another tool that can toggle the HBCC memory option, anyone? If not the improvement is not dramatic and the stability is really worse then without the option... but if you like give it a try maybe it works for you. Regards, glph3k Thanks for the update. I have been putting it through its paces, and so far, using blockchain drivers on vega64, devcon (to switch off HBCC) and memory timings, I am getting 2030H/s per vega, no stability issues on cryptonight. I'll start trying crytponightv7 and cryptonight_heavy soon. |

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][Airdrop][$LOK] Loki - Private Transactions & Comms

Great ANN, just enough to wet our appetite for a brand new (?) monero fork, and the upcoming POW phase. Just please don't start introducing surprises like 15% premine, ICOs, MN etc..
Hey Palwinderkaushik, Loki had a private sale which has ended. There is a pre-mine of 15%. There will be a new genesis block so it will not share chain history with Monero. Loki does not have master nodes. It has service nodes with a dynamically adjusting collateral requirement (diagram depicts this in the whitepaper). The Loki service nodes allow for a network to run privacy focused services. SNApps (service node applications) can be built on top of this network to reliably send and store private messages. Don't bother, it is either a bot to up this idiot's post count, or just an idiot who copied and pasted my original post from here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3016125.msg31016198#msg31016198I've reported him/her/it... |

Don't bother replying to tonthattung238 - he made the supremely stupid mistake of copying one of my posts so I reported him/her/it for plagiarism.
***
I just recently diverted some of my CN-optimized hardware to mining Monero, which I will then use to buy DERO because I can make 6-10x more DERO that way. That said, it tickles me to no end to see that the Baikal Giant-N now makes 6 DERO per day, which is what my 1.9kH/s CN rig used to do. So the ASICs have already been dealt with, in a way.
However, I have allocated just as much hashrate to IntenseCoin because it drastically moved up its hard fork date to deal with the ASIC invasion when their network hit a "mere" 35MH/s. Yes, there were some hiccups from this hasty forking, but overall I feel ITNS did much more than pay lip-service to preserving the decentralization that only GPU/CPU miners can bring to a coin, and I am even more happy to support that project with mining.
I point my hashpower where it is loved and appreciated and I am definitely not getting the loving vibe from the DERO network these days. On a purely intellectual level I realize that even another month's worth of ASICs hammering the network with 100MH/s or more shouldn't affect decentralization too much, but it still burns me to see Bitmain X3 make in 7-10 days what it took me 4+ months to amass.
Exactly what he said! The longer you wait to fork, the more community members you'll lose in the long run. +1 |

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Gateless Gate Sharp 1.3.2: Now with memory timing mods and CryptoNight-Heavy!

Gateless Gate Sharp 1.3.3 alpha https://github.com/zawawawa/GatelessGateSharp/releases/tag/v1.3.3-alpha* Added full support for CryptoNightV7, CryptoNight-Heavy, CryptoNight-Light, X16R, and X16S. * Added support for Raven, Pigeoncoin, Sumokoin, and AEON. * Added new default pools including Mining Pool Hub. * Updated default device settings. * Improved device settings handling, benchmarking, and optimization. * Numerous bug fixes and improvements. Hope this version is worth the wait. Enjoy! Just tried your software for the first time. It seems quite good, like the gui (as opposed to a dos command window) but: For users who don't have direct access to their rigs and rely on remote desktop apps, your gui doesn't scale at all, most of the boxes are outside the visible range. Now, you could possibly force the text size to display smaller, and even run it in some compatibility mode, but unfortunately that's too much trial and error. I would recommend you simplify the gui and make it less "busy". Just my two cents... |

First public-ready algorithms should be done around mid to late June. However I am hesitant to 'release' the bitstreams unless numerous algorithms are available. I wouldn't want someone to invest $10K in hardware with only 1 or 2 algorithms in case those coins profit or ROI suddenly changes. A good investment would be to have 4-5 algorithms available, making the hardware more secure against market changes.
Anyway, once people start mining with PC's linked to numerous high end FPGA cards, they will be 'immune' to forks since the algorithms in the FPGA's can be changed as fast as developers can fork their coin, actually faster in most cases since even a poorly tested rig can still mine, whereas a coin cannot fork until the new setup is heavily tested.
Good work, what platform you are targeting only Virtex? Some lower end Kintex UltraScale, Kintex UltraScale+ parts have enough internal ram to run at least one instance and they are much more easy to find ready to ship. The three boards I am going to initially support are the Nexys Video (XC7A200T $490), Avnet AES-KU040-DB-G (Kintex Ultrascale+ $975), and VCU1525 (Virtex VU9P $3995). I will start a thread soon and list which algorithms will be released for each board (the Virtex can run all the algorithms, the Kintex can run most, the Nexys can only run a few). My implementations are 100% unrolled pipelines running at one clock cycle per stage. The ROI on the Kintex and Virtex boards range from 50-150 days based on the algorithm, in today's bear market with 1-2 year ROI's on GPU's. If the market rises back to Dec/2017 levels, ROI would be ridiculously short. Please do not purchase any of the above hardware until I announce the official hash rates. I hope other FPGA developers follow my lead and stop mining in secret and start spreading the wealth. We need to give crypto back to the people. With enough people mining with high end FPGA's, Bitmain and Baikal can no longer control the market and screw people over. Power consumption for 90% usage on the VCU1525 is around 170W. The best high end rig is a standard mining motherboard with 8 x VCU1525 and a single 1600W power supply. A. Start your own thread because (see B) B. That sounds awesome! C. Cheers! |

hi i have a problem with the 2 last version : -banned ip or -un authorized. the problem is cast still mining :/i loose 6 hours this night :/ it have hasrate,it have internet connect but no connection with pool. i stop it ,i relunch it and it work  how to force cast to stop itself and rebegin? Can't remember where I got it from originally, but here it is: Create a new .bat file (create a txt file and rename to .bat), call it whatever you like. Inside, copy and paste the following (I use vega 64, Devcon and OverdriveNTool, skip that part if not using it: cd C:\YOURPATHHERE\cast_xmr-vega-win64_080
timeout /t 5
devcon.exe disable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F"
timeout /t 10
devcon.exe enable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F"
timeout /t 5
OverdriveNTool.exe -p0UTube -p1UTube -p2UTube -p3UTube
timeout /t 5
@echo off
echo -------------------------------------------------------------------
echo Restarts the miner every 60 minutes //you can set it to your own liking
echo -------------------------------------------------------------------
echo:
set executable=cast_xmr-vega.exe
set commandline= -G 0,1,2,3 -S POOLHERE:PORTHERE -u YOURWALLETHERE -p x --nonicehash --fastjobswitch %*
set runforseconds=3600
set restartinseconds=20
set /a counter=0
timeout 2
:start
start "cast_xmr-vega" %executable% %commandline%
echo:
echo The program is going to run for %runforseconds% seconds
timeout %runforseconds%
taskkill /f /im %executable%
cd
startup YOURFILENAMEHERE.bat
echo:
echo Restarting the app in %restartinseconds% seconds (%counter%)
timeout %restartinseconds%
set /a counter+=1
echo:
echo:
goto startReplace everything in Bold with your own info. Because I use devcon, I run it as an administrator, and then it restarts itself every hour. |

DERO: Privacy + Smart Contracts Update March 31 2018 DERO at present is code fork of Monero(Helium Hydra) with Bytecoin CryptoNote protocol. Thanks Monero guys for their Helium Hydra. Dero has written its own blockchain completely from scratch and we are on our blockchain now. DERO is completely new CryptoNote blockchain in Golang.
DERO is first blockchain to have complete SSL in P2P layer.
DERO will be first CryptoNote blockchain to have 500 Transactions Per Seconds on its blockchain without any validators or off-blockchain solutions.
DERO will be first CryptoNote blockchain to have smart contracts on its native chain without any extra layers or secondary blockchains.
Download Pre-compiled binaries for MacOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD ,Linux, Windows, Solaris etc. from: http://seeds.dero.io/alpha/ Is there any guide to move from old wallet to new one, to avoid possible problems? Choose your OS and arch(32/64 bit) from MacOS,FreeBSD, NetBSD, Linux, Windows, Solaris, Raspberry Pi or any arm device etc. and download pre-compiled binaries from http://seeds.dero.io/alpha/Start derod* and wait for sync around 20-60 mins depending on Network and CPU speed. In Parallel start dero-wallet* in another cmd-prompt and Just create new wallet with seed of old wallet. Use seed command to see seed words in old wallet. Congrats man, downloaded the new cli for windows and created the new wallet using the seed; all systems go so far! The new daemon looks great  |

Ok, I guess I'll be the first to say this then. Considering the amount of headaches so far, would you consider re-starting the whole thing?
lol, and I don't like the hair of your newborn baby, so would you consider aborting it and try again?  That's how you sound. ZETTEL runs well. Network is strong, hashalgo works fine. But too many people want to jump on this boat too quick. But that's not a problem really, that's just a consequence of success! Good on you mate, do what you want to do, no worries here. No need to be a dick about it though... |
